It's time for another Web Home of the Week! Actually, way overdue - it's been awhile since I've done one. But once you see this house - you'll know why I can't resist. Yes - it's my listing this time. I've actually sold a house for this couple once before. MAN - they know how to build a house! Want n example? Take a look at the picture below:
Okay...you're saying to yourself "it's a bathroom, big deal" right? Well, this is the basement bathroom. It has marble floors, marble countertop, tub and shower combo w/tiled surround. There's even a chandelier - yes, a chandelier in the basement bathroom. That's just an example - but here is a list of some of the detailed upgrades done by the homeowner/builder (the builder is in the contruction trades):
-
2x6 construction instead of the standard 2x4 - that's an extra 2 inches of insulation
-
Ceullulose blown insulation instead of fiberglass batts - more efficient because it traps more of the heat loss.
-
Hot water returns to all the faucets. That means there is a copper pipe leading to the hot water faucet in the sink and then a copper pipe leading back to the hot water heater. Hot water is constantly circulating in the pipe so you get instant hot water. Twice the amount of copper!
-
6 inch deep concrete driveway - the standard driveway pour is 3 1/2 inches deep.
-
Separate electric panels for the house, garage and basement
-
Trex decking is screwed down from underneath the deck so no screws show
That's just a sample of what has been done. I won't even get into the custom bar, pillared columns, wine cellar and more! You get the idea. So if you're looking for quality - check out the full details of this house at http://www.5643Schmidt.com - including over 100 photos, a virtual tour and a floor plan.
